Lisa McGuigan TempusTwoPEWTER LABEL Merlot Hunter Valley
Description: Dense Purple Nose Typical Merlot varietal character showing perfumed cherry and tomato bush. Some toffee cinnamon charred oak give additional complexity. Palate A soft full bodied wine with fine grained tannins, fleshy fruit and good persistence. General The vintage in the Hunter Valley is characterised by cool conditions and persistent rain through out the growing season. In early January extremely hot weather stalled the ripening of fruit and it was necessary to slightly dehydrate the fruit on the vine to attain optimum balance. The grapes were machines harvested at night with the fruit being chilled down to 8 degrees into a conventional stainless steel fermentation vessel. The crushed grapes were cold soaked for approximately 5 days when the onset of wild fermentation occurred, at which point a low level of yeast was also added. On completion of fermentation the grapes were pressed via a large Diemme airbag press into another vessel where the wine was allowed to complete both primary and secondary fermentation. The wine was clarified with some going to barrel for maturation and a portion being held in stainless steel. Prior to bottling the wine received a mild fining with egg whites (6 x 75 cl) Price: £78.41

Lisa McGuigan TempusTwoPEWTER LABEL Shiraz Barossa Valley
Description: Colour Dense violet purple Nose Powerful ribena fruit coupled with oak derived lifted buttery char. Palate A full bodied wine with fine integrated tannins and warm alcohol finish. Strong Shiraz fruit flavours of pepper/spice, cassis and earthy overtones are present and are complimented by a subtle underlay of new American oak. General The 1999 vintage was cool and dry with very little rain resulting in good quality clean fruit. The Vine Vale Vineyard consists entirely of old vines dry grown on a friable sandy loam which results in low cropping levels with the fruit being intensely flavoured. The fruit was allowed to hang on the vine until it began to show a slight dehydration at which point it was harvested and was transported to a crushing facility where it was crushed and chilled to 5 degrees and loaded onto a tanker and transported to the Hunter Valley. The must was onloaded into rotofermenters and allowed to warm up for two days before being inoculated with a selected yeast strain. Fermentation was conducted at 25 degrees C for approximately 4 days and then the grapes were pressed off through a Willmes airbag press to produce this intensely coloured wine with powerful fruit and soft tannins. This is a style that is capable of being cellared for decades or being consumed young when the fruit is dominating. (6 x 75 cl) Price: £78.41
